Customizing the Text in the Admin Panel Registered Model Table

  • To customize the text in the admin panel's registered model table, you'll need to make changes to the corresponding Django model's admin configuration.
Here's an example of how you can achieve this:
  • Open the file containing the Django model that represents the registered model. This file is usually named `admin.py` and is located within your Django app's directory.
  • Import the model and the admin module:


    from django.contrib import admin
    from .models import YourModel

  • Create a new class that inherits from `admin.ModelAdmin` and register it with the admin site:


    @admin.register(YourModel)
    class YourModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
        # Customization options go here
        list_display = ('custom_name', 'other_field', 'another_field')
        # ...

  • Customize the `list_display` attribute to specify the fields you want to display in the registered model table. You can include both the fields from the model itself and additional custom methods if needed. In the example above, the `'custom_name'` field is a custom method that you need to define.
  • Define the custom method in the same `YourModelAdmin` class:


    def custom_name(self, obj):
        # Custom logic to generate the desired text
        return "Custom Text: {}".format(obj.name)

  • In the `custom_name` method, you can modify the logic to generate the desired text based on the object (`obj`) and its related fields. This method will be used to display the custom text in the registered model table.
  • Remember to replace `'YourModel'` with the actual name of your model.
  • Once you've made these changes, the registered model table in the admin panel will display the customized text based on your configuration.
  • Note: If you're using a different admin interface or a customized admin site, the process might differ slightly. However, the general concept of customizing the model's admin configuration remains the same.
